electric gremlin v70 98

When driving when I rev engine and decelerate fast the electric cuts out for a sec or two and then come on

This also happens sometimes when I take my foot of gas. Its not a constant issue but happens occasionally.

My son says it is the battery but I don't think so. Battery is not brand new but it does always start.

I replaced alternator about 6 months ago.

Any Thoughts Thanks Madness

What is the condition of your upper torque mount, and bottom buckle. It sounds like a problem with grounds maybe, due to the engine rocking when torque is released. maybe a cable, or the ground straps? That would be when continuity is lost.

When's the last time the throttle body was thoroughly cleaned?
Ditto for the IAS control motor.

Check the battery tray and make sure the thingy-majig is keeping the battery from sliding left to right. If it is missing, it will cause untold intermittent issues - until finally you have nothing.
